That's what I thought, of course, but the volume on my SoundBlaster is all the way up and it works fine if I put it in one of the 2600s instead, with the same input. I did find my other 7800 power supply and it doesn't act any differently on either 7800. I've only got one Supercharger, so I can't do the obvious experiment to eliminate that as the problem, but it seems to work fine in both the 2600s I have down here. (I've got a couple more of those, but no more 7800s.) Any idea what the green-flashing screen could be a symptom of? That unit is my spare 7800, so it could be dusty inside or something. Seems to work OK with cartridges. ab -- Archives (includes files) at http://www.biglist.com/lists/stella/archives/ Unsub & more at http://www.biglist.com/lists/stella/
